The schedule for today!

We had our warm up from 8:00- 8:30 which included doing Yoga together as a way to wake up, calm down, and get connected with each other before rehearsal. 8:30- 9:20 we had our breakfast together. At 9:30 our rehearsal began with our usual check- in to see how the cast and staff of the ASCTC is doing, after that we develop a plan for what scenes we want to block/ go over that day.

Production Insights

Today the cast really grew as a company, as we continue to block scenes we have learned how to work, direct, and act together. Our cast is developing more and more ways to direct the show in a way that includes everyone in the cast and help our show look better.
